Then off to school...Ben with his FABULOUS teacher (isn't she so cute?)...his class is singing "Happy Birthday" to him and he requested they add "cha-cha-cha"
Time for donuts...yes, I brought in Krispy Kremes and hats for everyone!
So, I tell myself that I only do Birthday Parties on odd years...but on the even years I feel so bad that we don't do much...so I let Ben have a little mini-party and we invited two of his buddies over...
And played balloon games...took me FOREVER to put those streamers up...one of the times I was WISHING I was just a little bit TALLER!!
And had cupcakes...
Opened presents...
Then off to the movies...where I loaded them up with sugar (candy, popcorn, and HUGE Icee's for everyone...that's how we roll)
After the movies we needed to burn off some sugar (monkey bread, donuts, cupcakes, ice cream, candy...) so we went to the park to play catch with Ben's new glove! He was so excited to play catch with his Dad!
He's a LEFTY...
Ben shares a Birthday with my Dad...so we went to Peter Piper with my parents and sister Erin and her family for dinner...the kids were so excited to play the games!
All Ben wanted for his Birthday was this Wolverine hand thing...
He was so excited that his Gramma Jones bought it for him!! I think Ben had the BEST Birthday EVER!!!
Ben is at such a fun age...I can't believe he is SIX YEARS OLD already! He is quickly learning to read and do some addition! He loves learning but DOES NOT LIKE to write...says it makes him sleepy! His favorite movie is G-FORCE and SPEED RACER and he loves to play SPIES! He is such a cute kid and we are so grateful to have him in our family!!

That is beyond the most fun day EVER! Happy Birthday, Ben!!!
PS My Luke said the exact same thing about writing when he was in Kindergarten - that it made him sleepy! ha ha ha He's over it now, doesn't mind writing anymore.
You are such a fun mama Kyle, you inspire me to do more for and with my own little chillins'! Happy Birthday Ben and Bro. Jones!
